HTC EVO 4G Shift specs confirmed by Walmart

It’s been called the HTC Knight, the HTC Speedy, the HTC EVO Shift 4G, the HTC EVO 4G Shift and now Walmart is calling it simply the HTC EVO Shift. Call it whatever you want… the bottom line is Sprint’s version of the sexy HTC Desire Z is getting ready for lift off. We first scooped the device back in October, and the picture has been getting clearer ever since. Now, thanks to some overexcited Walmart Web workers, the puzzle is nearly complete. Specs highlights confirmed by Walmart are as follows:

While the official announcement isn’t expected until Thursday as Sprint struggles to combat with the inevitable onslaught of 4G announcements from Verizon Wireless at CES, the HTC EVO 4G Shift is expected to go on sale this Sunday, January 9th. Hit the break for a few more images from the Walmart site.

Yeah, the lack of a front facing camera is the dagger for me, would have made it more future-proof.

TOTALLY AGREE. Without a front facing camera you can’t use the imaginary DROID Skype app that allows video chat!

But Tango works just fine!

It really can’t be a dual-LED flash when there is clearly only ONE flash in the picture. but whatever. Still a nice looking phone. T-Mobile gets the G2, Verizon gets the STILL unannounced HTC Merge, Sprint gets this, AT&T gets shit. They should of added an FFC to the thing, though.

It kind of looks like an ugly HTC G2 copy….other than the 8 mp camera its pretty much the same thing. How sad.

I was excited about this phone until I heard about the dual-core LG phone. I’m going to wait until that comes out for Sprint.

Yet it sucks… I surprisingly have quite a few friends that can video chat when I open an app up.. What adds insult to injury is the transform gets the front facing cam and from what reviews are saying that phone needs to be put to pasture already..

I like HTC, But,.. Is this another sloppy “Z” hinged device?

yezzzup

I’ll stick with my current Evo.

Bezel is too thin. Get an iphone.

My wife is in the market for a android, maybe I get this for her, waiting for the EVO 2 or the next evo, I’m sure it will be a dual processor phone.

Women prefer iphones. Thicker bezel is hot in 2011.

Jack Hale

Yay! Finally, a good google, decent processor, not binged-out, HTC slider that is not a monstrous size and on a decent network that has good price plans!

Supercop

Top bezel is too narrow compare to iphone. Have fun fat fingering the screen while watching youtube. No point having 4g.

Drew

Your last 3 posts reference the bezel…. and yet no one, NO ONE has said anything remotely close to a bezel. STFU troll…!!

Supercop

You android fanboys can’t handle the fact that iphone has the biggest bezel.

Drew

My God, that keyboard is hideous…!!!!

I guess they didn’t want to confirm the processor specs or internal memory.
